Mother injured
Two huge trees toppled over at the bathing area
Several visitors to the Rodlbad near Gramastetten (Upper Austria) suffered a huge scare on Sunday. Two huge ash trees suddenly toppled over there. A 44-year-old woman from Mühlviertel was hit on the head by branches and injured. The woman had to be transported to the Kepler University Hospital in Linz. Her seven-year-old daughter was only narrowly avoided being hit.
The 44-year-old from Altenberg had been swimming in the Rodlbad in Gramastetten together with the seven-year-old and several other bathers at around 4 p.m. on Sunday. The woman was sitting on a rock in the water with her daughter at the time.
Suddenly - for as yet unexplained reasons - two ash trees about 15 meters high fell from the northern forest area, hitting the 44-year-old woman in the head with branches.
Her daughter and the other bathers nearby just managed to get to safety and were uninjured.
However, after receiving medical treatment from the emergency doctor and the Red Cross, the mother had to be admitted to the Med Campus 3 of the Kepler University Hospital Linz with injuries of indeterminate severity.
